This
period
of
the
year
used
to
be
called
the
‘Tides
of
Summer’
since
the
Sundays
consisted
of
Ascension-tide, Whitsun-tide (a.k.a. Whit Sunday, a.k.a. Pentecost).
‘Whit’
Sunday
is
a
contraction
of
"White”
Sunday,
attested
in
"the
Holy
Ghost,
whom
thou
didst
send.”
For
farm
workers
this
was
a
‘breathing
space’
after
the
hard
work
of
ploughing
and
sowing
-
and
before
the
(equally)
hard
and
extended
period
of
work
of
harvesting.
The
‘village
box’
was
opened
and
money,
to
which
all
had
contributed
was
distributed
(if
it
hadn’t
been
claimed
during
times
of
sickness
and
ill-health.
Strong
ales
were
brewed
to
take
advantage
of
‘free
time’
and
people with money in their pockets.
A Quotation to consider_
“There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true ..
.. the other is to refuse to believe what is true.”

Grant to them, and to all who are affected by sickness,
faith, hope, and knowledge of your love,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Amen.
